Satoru Shibata now Outside Director at The Pokemon Company

Satoru Shibata, who you will know as the former Nintendo of Europe president, is now the Outside Director over at the Pokemon Company. Mr. Shibata officially started his new job in May 2018. The Pokemon Company is currently busy developing Pokemon: Let’s Go Pikachu! and Pokemon: Let’s Go Eevee!

He’s done a great job as NOE’s president since the company isn’t as behind the NOA branch as they use to be in the 90s. In fact, I’d say NOE has been better than NOA for quite some time under his leadership. Hopefully whoever replaced him will continue to make NOE shine.
